[trinity-users] dcopserve and tdelaunch failures
by David C. Rankin 17 Jan '20

17 Jan '20

Hi people, Running into dcopserve and tdelaunch failures. I did all the usual things. deleted dop etc etc files, check perms and the like. Even created a new user.Different machines etc. Root runs with very little problem but still has those errors on occasion. General question... Anyone else encounter this? Kate, There is an old bug resulting from an iceAuth issue that will prevent dcop from starting. I cannot recall the exact issue, but it was either an xorg or iceauth version change issue. Another possible problem is a change or misconfigured hostname. Have you changed that lately? I did a quick search and can't find a decent link to the iceauth issue I'm thinking about. Maybe your google foo is better than mine there, but I recall it being a 2016 issue? (or maybe a year or two on either side). The search results I get show 2008-2009 range that isn't the problem I'm thinking of.

screen color distortion after xrandr
by Felmon Davis 12 Jan '20

12 Jan '20

greets! I was trying to get a second monitor (a tv) to work using xrandr. I noticed that the screen on the laptop would suffer severe, almost 'psychedelic', effects if I hit a certain setting. unfortunately I don't recall the setting but the ill effect was consistent and rendered the disply nearly unreadable. and the only solution was to end the session. then by accident I hit the 'save this configuration' key and now the setting is permanent. btw I created a second user and it doesn't suffer from the problem. I cannot find a way to restore the proper display setting. I have been told there is no way to save configuration built into xrandr so (I guessed) the configuration must be stored by the TDERandRtray application. but I don't see anything in '/root/.trinity/share/config/tderandrtrayrc' and besides, if there were, it should affect the second user too. it's an Asus Zenbook with Intel HD graphics. I am considering shifting to the second user and grappling with the UID and GID changes though I ultimately want to resurrect the original username. thank you for any help. f. -- Felmon Davis Verbum sat sapienti.

configuring trash?
by D. R. Evans 10 Jan '20

10 Jan '20

I expect I'm being blind and it's somewhere obvious, but I can't find any information on configuring trash in TDE. Example questions for which I'd like to find answers: how large can it grow? how long can files stay in trash before they're deleted? where is trash actually located?

Mouse too fast - where can I set DPI ?
by Internal Affairs 08 Jan '20

08 Jan '20

I experienced the problem after I finally did a major update. Maybe it is a udev vs evdev thing. I do not have this probem on MX (you know, the old Mepis / Antix related distro). Funny thing is I cannot find xsettings or something there. If only I would know where to look I could compare :) There is a EXEGNU LiveCD with Trinity, if I recall correctly it is working well there. Warm regards, Eric-Jan

Thoughs on mounting of devices on FreeBSD
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 05 Jan '20

05 Jan '20

Hi Slavec! What about this methode of mounting removeable devices on FreeBSD: - add user to "operator" group - sysctl vfs.usermount=1 - add a ~/media folder - mount the device on ~/media/[NAME] (which is owned by user and does not require root password) Would this be a viable way?

Trinity Desktop Environment R14.0.7 released, new target R14.0.8 started...
by Slávek Banko 05 Jan '20

05 Jan '20

Hi all, if you have not seen announcement, R14.0.7 been released! https://www.trinitydesktop.org/newsentry.php?entry=2019.12.30 All deb packages are fully available, including all mirrors. Added support for Debian 10 (Buster), Raspbian 9 (Stretch), Raspbian 10 (Buster), Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco) and Ubuntu 19.10 (Eoan). For LTS versions of Ubuntu, armhf packages are now available. Building packages for Debian 6 (Squeeze), Raspbian 7 (Wheezy), Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) and Ubuntu 17.10 (Artful) have been stopped. Updated ISO images are available for Slax with Trinity and Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic). https://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/cdimages/ Although changes have been made to the primary archive and the layout has changed, redirects are set and symlinks created so that the existing URLs continue to work and you don't have to change your sources.list. Regarding RPM packages we look forward and hope that François will prepare new packages soon. Now already begun work on a new target R14.0.8. Therefore in the Preliminary Stable Builds apt repository you can soon expect new packages. If you used the Preliminary Stable Builds repository only temporarily, and you prefer to stick on the official final release, it is now the best time to switch to the official repository. Otherwise, we will be very happy if you help us in testing the upcoming release. Thank you for your attention :) Cheers -- Slávek

[trinity-users] apt-cacher ng pukes with trinity-sb and trinity-testing repos
by David Hare 04 Jan '20

04 Jan '20

I need apt-cacher-ng as i build system images (Exe GNU/Linux, Devuan+TDE) but have limited internet access. All repos, including http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/trinity/deb/trinity-r14.0.x work normally with apt-cacher-ng except when trinity-sb and/or trinity-testing are enabled. They are configured exactly as per Trinity site instructions and the keyring is installed. Without using apt-cacher-ng (proxy disabled in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/) trinity-sb and/or trinity-testing work. They do work using a (much) older apt-cacher-ng version (0.8.0-3) Is something wrong with the "InRelease" file? Thanks in advance..
